Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Research Opportunities in the Decision and Management Sciences: Report of the Dallas National Science Foundation Workshop
Another significant move by nsf has been to involve, at the outset, not only the Operations research, management science and decision science communities that were instrumental in establishing dms, but also at least two others that are relevant but have not been closely connected. One is systems theory, which is based primarily in electrical engineering and has manymembers who work on operational problems. The other, more distant in culture, is the branch of psychology that studies how people actually make decisions. This subject sounds relevant to dms, and it is. The bringing of the three groups together establishes a broader disciplinary base than can be constructed from the mainline or/ms community alone.
